Default List and Ask

Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

I recently sold a high four figure card with BIN and received an offer at almost the BIN price. It was the fair value for the card and I wanted to sell it -- hence me being fair in the price I listed. Too often I see people buy a card off either ebay or the BST for prices that are easily verified online -- and then a few days later put it out on ebay with a BIN of double the price. Or more. I guess the point is to hope that there is someone out there that is an idiot, but nearly all the time the overpriced card never sells at that price. I suppose the motivation to put it out there at a fair market price is to sell the card whereas to try to hit a homerun in 24 hours turnaround time is just an effort for a windfall without a real intention to sell the card.
